Ok, that's a single post AAR. More like an overall achievement presentation.
In anticipation of CK2 i thought I'd give the old one another go just for the fun of it. It turned out to be a real nice game, too...I've kinda given up on it for the last couple of weeks but it still has potential, i think...anyway here goes the
The Humongous Eastern Empire of Georgia and the Rest of the Mostly Orthodox Peoples In It(HEEGRMOPII hee-grmow-pee)
Which is happily ruled by this guy:
Who would be really happy with what he's already got only he thinks he still lacks a title that would look real good on his resume.
Emperor...
It looks like it's just within grasp, yet, things are not quite what they seem.
For one the Georgian Empire(To Be) is kind of unstable due to it's size and thus the glorious Gurgen King of This and That and the Other Place, Prince of Left, Right, Upwards and Downwards, Count of Yadda yadda...would have to rely solely on the forces he directly commands to march to and conquer the sacred city that is Constantinople and be crowned Emperor of Byzantium, Georgia and all the Mostly Orthodox Peoples of the East. And the Byzantine Emperor has the biggest part of what's still left of his formerly glorious empire under his direct control. Thus our forces would be mostly evenly matched on the field. And it wouldn't be a case of just conquering Constantinople but our glorious forces would have to occupy Anatolia, most of Greece and a small part of the Balkans before the Byzantine Emperor can be convinced to abdicate in favour of his opponent. Also there's good chance that certain uppity little princes within the ridiculously glorious empire of Georgia would love the opportunity a protracted foreign campaign would give them to amass their own forces against their rightful liege.
